Figment

(Vs.1) I can see it now shooting straight up in this town But it's all apart from you Maybe you're a dream, are you? Well, I guess I'll never know Because it would never glow Yes, I know it sounds wrong but how could we ever be strong when I'm missing part of you? So, now what do we do?

(Chorus) Can I know who you are with so many faces? They're like the stars surrounding your finger spaces You'd think I don't make sense and I don't know why I'm writing this because I don't even know you're alive You're not a dream, are you?

(Vs.2) Let's say your real I'd rather render you fictitious But here goes imagination, the one I let the others steal How can we survive in a world where you can't tell me secrets? The stars are listening You could never be real, darling

(Chorus)

When chances are just chances, it would never really happen Fascination with fantasizing Will you be the right timing?

(Chorus)

I can see it now I'll still be dreaming about... about you, the figment
